Raspberry/Blackberry

Ripe blackberries on the cane, an edible fruit plant for home gardens.

Nature's Candy in Your Backyard

Growing your own cane berries is incredibly rewarding. Raspberries and Blackberries (Brambles) are easy to grow and produce an abundance of fruit that is far sweeter and cheaper than the grocery store. From summer-bearing to ever-bearing varieties, you can have fresh berries for months.

Why You Need It:

  • Superfood: Packed with vitamins and antioxidants.
  • High Yield: A small patch can produce gallons of berries.
  • Pollinator Friendly: The spring flowers are highly attractive to bees.

Planting Tips:

Plant in Full Sun. They need good air circulation to prevent disease. Pruning is key: for most varieties, you cut down the canes that produced fruit that year, leaving the new green canes for next year.
